D
Started out just like any other day
Bm
The people went to work without any delays
G              Gmaj7          A     Bm7  A7
Including Brad, Brad the accountant
D
Brad was sick of numbers but he didn't care
Bm
As long as his boss gave him his well earned share
G              Gmaj7                   A       Bm7 A7
It sucked so bad, nothing too special about it

D
Mary died of TB in 19 1 2
Bm
And in a hundred years her teeth fell out and skin turned blue
G                Gmaj7           A        Bm7 A7
Her life was sad, nobody'd ever doubt it

D
But a century passed and it brang her back
Bm
And her cold hand brushed right up and felt the plaque
              G                  Gmaj7
That had been placed there in her memory
A                  Bm7 A
Here lies our dear Mary

[Chorus]
      G                A
If you can't find true love
      D      Gbm   D
Maybe you were too late
        G    A            D    Gbm D
Perhaps underground rests your soulmate
    G      A          D    Gbm D
The zombie apocalypse isn't so bad
G                             Dmaj7
This is the story of Mary and Brad

[Verse 2]
D
TV flicked on and the newsman spoke
      Bm
About how the gate to the cemetery somehow broke
          G    Gmaj7                      A
It was so weird, 'cause dead people stay dead, right?

Bm7    A7   D
Wrong that wasn't the case, Mary hobbled along
            Bm
And all the people on the sidewalk thought this is so wrong
           G    Gmaj7                 A        Bm7 A7
She was so feared, but all she wanted was light

D
Brad saw her and he had a heart attack
Bm
Hoped he wasn't just a bloody necrophiliac
           G     Gmaj7                   A        Bm7 A7
Closer she neared, because he had caught her sight

           D
She said I like eating people, and I like brains a lot
         Bm
But Brad I'll spare your life because I think you're pretty hot
     G              Gmaj7                A                 Bm7   A
With discipline and self control I think I could love your human soul

[Chorus]
G                 Dmaj7
If you can't find love
      D          Gbm  D
Maybe you were too late
        G    A            D        Gbm  D
Perhaps underground rests your soulmate
    G      A          D    Gbm D
The zombie apocalypse isn't so bad
G                             Dmaj7
This is the story of Mary and Brad
G        Dmaj7
Mary and Brad
G        Dmaj7
Mary and Brad

D Dmaj7

           G
Never mind scratch that
         Dmaj7
Mary ate Brad
G        Dmaj7
Mary ate Brad
G        Dmaj7  A7
Mary ate Brad

[Verse 3]
              D
Well you know zombies they're a selfish breed
        Bm
And hey nutrition is just one of Mary's basic needs
           G  Gmaj7              A         Bm7 A
And either way she had an undead boyfriend

D
Soon the whole world's future wasn't looking well
Bm
At least conspiracy theorists proved two thousand and twelve
           G   Gmaj7                 A          Bm7 A
Before the same, witness their whole lives bend

D
Eventually the zombies popped up everywhere
Bm
And they eliminated everybody sur la terre
             G  Gmaj7               A       Bm7 A
It's fair to say it really had been the end

D
Sometimes Mary remembered Brad
Bm
His contribution to the takeover sure made her glad
       G             Gmaj7
Though none of their brief love was real
    A                   Bm7    A
She thanked him for the lovely meal

[Chorus]
       G          A
If you can't find love
      D            Gbm  D
Sorry you were too late
           G     A         D        Gbm  D
Don't look underground for your soulmate
            G          A         D
Because the dead don't want love I must add
G                                   Dmaj7
I'm sorry dear friends but Mary ate Brad
G        Dmaj7
Mary ate Brad
G        Dmaj7
Mary ate Brad

D Dmaj7

G                                   Dmaj7
And here ends the story of Mary and Brad
G        Dmaj7
Mary and Brad
G        Dmaj7  D  Dmaj7
Mary and Brad

[Outro]
G Ab A6

A        D
